150 Watt Explosion Proof LED Light | 22500 Lumens | Class 1 Div 2 | 5000K | 100-277V

Product Overview

This 150 Watt Explosion Proof LED Light is engineered for hazardous location lighting where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts are present. It delivers 22,500 lumens at 5000K, providing high-output illumination for environments requiring strict safety compliance. Typical installations include Class I Division 2 areas, paint booths, and chemical processing spaces where legacy 400W metal halide fixtures are being replaced.

The fixture is designed for use in both indoor and outdoor hazardous environments, with a robust housing and IP66 rating for wet locations. Yoke mounting is standard, with an optional slip fitter available for pole or angled surface installations.

Core Performance and Output

This fixture outputs 22,500 lumens at 150 watts, achieving 150 lumens per watt. The 120° beam angle provides wide, uniform coverage suitable for open hazardous areas and large work zones. Color temperature is 5000K, supporting high-visibility tasks. Power factor exceeds 0.90 and THD is below 10% for stable electrical performance.

At lower mounting heights, output may be excessive for confined spaces or small enclosures. For mounting heights above 25 feet, uniformity may decrease if spacing is not adjusted. The fixture is non-dimming and operates on 100-277V, 50/60 Hz circuits.

Adjustability and Control Options

The fixture includes a yoke mount for surface or wall installation, allowing for vertical and horizontal aiming. An optional slip fitter is available for pole or angled mounting applications. The beam is fixed at 120°, with no field-changeable optics.

No integrated dimming or advanced control options are provided. Operation is on/off only, with no occupancy or daylight sensors included.

Longevity and Reliability

L70 rated life is 244,000 hours, supporting long-term deployment in demanding hazardous environments. The fixture is designed for continuous operation in areas with frequent exposure to dust, moisture, and vibration.

Operating temperature range is -40°F to 140°F. The fixture maintains performance in both cold storage and high-ambient industrial settings. All components are sealed against ingress and corrosion.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing is constructed for hazardous locations, with a tempered glass lens and heavy-duty enclosure. IP66 and IK08 ratings provide protection against water, dust, and impact. The fixture measures 22 x 18 inches and weighs 32 lbs, supporting stable installation in high-vibration or exposed locations.

UL 844, UL 1598, UL 1598A, ATEX, and IECEx certifications are met. The fixture is suitable for marine outside type environments and wet locations.

The fixture is suitable for both indoor and outdoor hazardous areas, including marine and offshore environments. It is designed to withstand exposure to chemicals, salt spray, and high humidity.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Yoke mounting supports installation on walls, ceilings, or structural members. The optional slip fitter allows for pole or angled mounting. All wiring and connections must comply with hazardous location requirements and local codes.

Routine inspection is recommended to ensure lens and housing integrity in corrosive or high-dust environments. The fixture?s sealed design minimizes maintenance intervals. Weight and size should be considered for overhead or elevated installations.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 12 to 30 feet, depending on area size and required light levels. Fixtures are spaced to provide uniform coverage, with closer spacing in paint booths or process areas where shadowing must be minimized.

In open hazardous areas, higher output allows for reduced fixture count, but may increase glare if not aimed or shielded appropriately. Layouts are determined by hazard classification, coverage requirements, and structural mounting options.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is certified to UL 844, UL 1598, UL 1598A, ATEX, IECEx, and CSA standards. It meets Class I Division 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III requirements. IP66 and IK08 ratings are provided for ingress and impact protection.

Warranty is 5 years. All certifications and ratings are maintained when installed according to manufacturer instructions and applicable codes.
